[gmx-users] Re: error in g_x2top

[Justin A. Lemkul]

Please keep all Gromacs-related correspondence on the gmx-users list.  I am not 
a private tutor.  I am CC'ing this message there and ask that anything further 
be posted to the list.  See below for comments.

The .n2t files that come pre-packaged with these force fields are largely 
incomplete.  Further, g_x2top is designed for small molecules, and for anything 
complex, it may not be possible to define proper (non-conflicting) .n2t entries. 
  If you can get the topology via pdb2gmx, then you shouldn't have to do 
anything else.
